● Explain Where does energy come from

Energy in our earth come from the sun. Why? We know Sun or Surya is the
closest star to Earth with an average distance of 149,680,000 kilometers (93,026,724
miles). The sun and the planets of the eighth (which is already known / discovered by
humans) to form the Solar System. The sun is categorized as a small star type G.The
sun is a ball of incandescent gas and was not really round. Sun has the equator and
poles since the rotational motion. Diameter ekuatorialnya 864,000 miles, while the
median line between the poles 43 miles shorter. Sun is a member of the largest solar
system, because 98% of the mass of the Solar System accumulated in the sun.

In addition to the center of circulation, the sun is also a central source of


energy in the solar neighborhood. The sun's core and consists of three layers of skin,
each photosphere, chromosphere and corona. To continue to shine, the sun, which
consists of hot gas hydrogen exchange substances with substances helium through
nuclear fusion reactions at levels of 600 million tonnes, with the loss of four million
tons of mass each time.

The sun is believed to form in 4.6 billion years ago. Density is 1.41 solar
masses versus mass of water. Total solar energy reaching the Earth's surface that are
recognized as the solar constant equal to 1370 watts per square meter at any time. The
sun as the center of the Solar System is a second generation star. Material from the
sun formed from the explosion of the first generation of stars like that are believed by
scientists, that the universe was formed by the big bang explosion about 14,000
million years ago.

Turnover Sun

Because the sun is not solid but rather in the form of plasma, causing the
rotation is faster at the equator than at the poles. Rotation on khatulistiwanya region is
about 25 days and 35 days in the polar regions. Each round and has 27.9 times the
gravity of Earth gravity. There julangan very hot gas that can reach up to thousands
and even millions of kilometers into space. Shot of the sun 'sun flares' can disrupt the
communication such as radio waves, TV and radars on Earth and can damage
satellites or space stations that are not protected. The sun also produces radio waves,
ultra-violet waves, infra-red rays, X-rays and solar winds that spread to the entire
solar system.

Earth sheltered than the solar wind by the Earth's magnetic field, while also
protecting the Earth's ozone layer than ultra-violet rays and infra-red rays. There were
sunspots that appear from time to time in the sun are caused by differences in
temperature on the surface of the sun. It signifies the region of sunspots that "less hot"
versus other regions and achieve breadth exceeds the size of Earth. Sometimes hinder
the circulation of the Moon around the Earth until sinaran sun to Earth, by the result
in the occurrence of solar eclipse.

Sun has two kinds of motion as follows:

* The rotation around its axis, length 25 1 / 2 day one-time round. Rotational
movement can be proved with visible black spots in the nucleus which is sometimes
located on the right and approximately 2 weeks is on the left.
* Moving between cluster-cluster stars. In addition to rotating, the sun moves
between star clusters with a speed of 20 km per second, the movement that surrounds
the center of the galaxy.

Functions of the sun

* The sun has a very important function for the earth. Beam energy the sun has
made the earth remains warm for life, makes air and water circulating in the earth,
plants can photosynthesize, and many other things.
* Represents a source of energy (heat rays). The energy contained in coal and oil
actually comes from the sun.
* Controlling the stability of the circulation of the earth that also means controlling
the occurrence of day and night, year and control the other planets. Without the sun, it
is difficult to imagine that there will be life on earth.

Prove that sound, light, vibration, heat are typical of energy

● Sound Energy

Sound energy is the energy produced by sound vibrations as they travel


through a specific medium. Sound vibrations cause waves of pressure which lead to
some level of compression and rarefaction in the mediums through which the sound
waves travel. Sound energy is, therefore, a form of mechanical energy; it is not
contained in discrete particles and is not related to any chemical change, but is purely
related to the pressure its vibrations cause. Sound energy is typically not used for
electrical power or for other human energy needs because the amount of energy that
can be gained from sound is quite small.

Energy is the amount of work that can be performed by a given force, system, object,
or anything else capable of performing work. Work is simply defined as the ability to
cause change in a system; this can involve anything from a change in location to a
change in heat energy. The amount of work that can be performed by common, day-
to-day sounds is quite small, so sound is not often thought of in terms of the energy it
contains. Sound energy does, however, exist as the vibrational waves of sound cause
change, even if that change is small.

Rather than measuring sound in typical units of energy, such as joules, scientists and
others tend to measure it in terms of pressure and intensity using units such as pascals
and decibels. Sound measurements are, by their very nature, relative to other sounds
that cause more or less pressure. Usually, sound is described in terms of the way it is
perceived by healthy human ears. A sound that produces 100 pascals of pressure at an
intensity level of about 135 decibels is, for example, commonly described as the
threshold of pain. It is of adequate pressure and intensity, often combined into the
common term "loudness," to cause physical pain.

Sound energy is closely related to the ability of the human ear to perceive sound. The
wide outer area of the ear is maximized to collect sound vibrations. Sound energy is
amplified and passed through the outer ear, striking the eardrum, which transmits
sounds into the inner ear. Auditory nerves fire according to the particular vibrations of
the sound waves in the inner ear, which designate such things as the pitch and volume
of the sound. The ear is set up in an optimal way to interpret sound energy in the form
of vibrations.
